If price were no issue, what would you get , and why?
Should I get a set with spherical bearings? Are spherical bearings worth it? Or just stick to urethane?

In terms of functionality, durability/longevity. What are the best? function7, skunk2, buddyclub, PIC....just to name a few.

This is for a weekend car that will be drag raced and auto crossed, with a stff suspension.

Thx

function 7, i heard they are the best and they say oem are good as well

 

OEM Integra LCAs with new OEM bushings will outlast anything else.

 

 

+3 aftermarket bushing tend to fall apart pretty rapidly, thats really the only reason mine are still stock

 

TRUTH BE TOLD...

 

like everyone else said stock

 

I've had great luck with my OEM. But if you had to go aftermarket. Anything less than Function 7 is a waste of money that would be better suited if donated to me.

But seriously. OEM. Or Function 7 if aftermarket.

Just order some new integra LCAs. They'll accommodate a sway bar, which I hope you'll get for autocross.

 

I had PIC lca's before going Koni/GC with OEM ITR lca's. The PIC's held up amazingly well for 3 years and showed no sign of wear.

 

Good to see someone using them. I'd be delighted to get some if I didn't already have a function7 brace. Function7 all the way across would look great!! Mixing something else wouldn't do the car justice.

I'm glad to hear those held up well, I've recommended them for some time now.

 

Indeed OEM or F7 are going to be best. The cheapest but still good option I think is used OEM Integra LCAs with urethane bushings because it's only about $25-30 plus about $5 for some new paint to spruce them up.

 

What are those called exactly in the Energy Suspension catalogue? Their catalogue is quite cluttered (without mentioning PDF - FAIL) and I would hate to order the wrong bushings for the Integra LCAs I am about to install on my Hatch.

Also... what other polyurethane bushings do you recommend I order while I am working back there? I am about to do a rear disc conversion + ASR brace + sway bar in the back. Sorry if this last question was off-topic.

Thanks!

 

^Look at these. http://www.energysuspensionparts.com...a+Integra+1996


OP, function7 is the ****, but stay away from sperhical's unless you plan to track the car. They normally do not last at all on the streets. And I don't belive they're covered by the F7 warranty.


For the money ES is a contender. BUT, the normally don't last very long, in some cases they do. But you will have clean them and lube them. This will prevent therm from failing and squeaking.

If you can afford it, take a look at PIC and hardrace bushings. I may end up going with a few ES bushings just to hold to me over. Trailing arm bushings are gone lol

 

That site is *just* what I needed.

Thanks for sharing bro.

 

Also, LCAs from an 89-91 Civic/CRX Si are a perfect fit on an EG, they can accommodate the sway bar, AND don't have the holes for the ABS lines, if you're picky about that kind of thing. This is what I have.
